Answer:

24 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this with a proportion.

$\frac{Height}{Shadow}=\frac{Height}{Shadow}\\\frac{Height}{12}=\frac{2}{1}\\Height=\frac{2}{1}(12)\\Height = 24$

Therefore, the height of the sailboat is 24 feet.

Given the parent function f(x)=|x|, write the equation of the function g(x) whose graph is pictured

kenny6666 [7]

By analyzing the graph of the transformed function, we can see that:

g(x) = 2*|x - 2| - 4

<h3>How to get the function g(x)?</h3>

In the image we have two graphs, the yellow one is the graph of g(x).

First, analyzing the vertex we can see the translation used, you need to remember:

<u>Horizontal translation:</u>

For a general function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x + N).

If N is positive, the shift is to the left.
If N is negative, the shift is to the right.

<u>Vertical translation:</u>

For a general function f(x), a vertical translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N.

If N is positive, the shift is upwards.
If N is negative, the shift is downwards.

We can see that the new vertex is at (2, -4), so the translation is 2 units to the right and 4 units down, then we have:

g(x) = |x - 2| - 4

Now, you also can see that the yellow function is narrower, such that for each increase in the x-unit, we have an increase of 2 in the y-axis, then we need to multiply by 2 the absolute value part:

g(x) = 2*|x - 2| - 4

This is the transformed function.

Can somebody explain how these would be done? The selected answer is incorrect, and I was told "Nice try...express the product b

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Solution ( Second Attachment ) : - 2.017 + 0.656i

Solution ( First Attachment ) : 16.140 - 5.244i

Step-by-step explanation:

Second Attachment : The quotient of the two expressions would be the following,

$6\left[\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi \:}{5}\right)\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right]$

So if we want to determine this expression in standard complex form, we can first convert it into trigonometric form, then apply trivial identities. Either that, or we can straight away apply the following identities and substitute,

( 1 ) cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x)

( 2 ) sin(x) = cos(π / 2 - x)

If cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x), then cos(2π / 5) = sin(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = sin(π / 10). Respectively sin(2π / 5) = cos(π / 2 - 2π / 5) = cos(π / 10). Let's simplify sin(π / 10) and cos(π / 10) with two more identities,

( 1 ) $\cos \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1+\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}$

( 2 ) $\sin \left(\frac{x}{2}\right)=\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos \left(x\right)}{2}}$

These two identities makes sin(π / 10) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , and cos(π / 10) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ .

Therefore cos(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , and sin(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ . Substitute,

$6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right]$

Remember that cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting those values,

$6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right]$

And now simplify this expression to receive our answer,

$6\left[ \left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}+i\left\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}\right]$ ÷ $2\sqrt{2}\left[0-i\right]$ = $-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}+\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}i$ ,

$-\frac{3\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ = $-2.01749\dots$ and $\:\frac{3\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ = $0.65552\dots$

= $-2.01749+0.65552i$

As you can see our solution is option c. - 2.01749 was rounded to - 2.017, and 0.65552 was rounded to 0.656.

________________________________________

First Attachment : We know from the previous problem that cos(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , sin(2π / 5) = $\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}$ , cos(- π / 2) = 0, and sin(- π / 2) = - 1. Substituting we receive a simplified expression,

$6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}-6i\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}$

We know that $6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}} = 16.13996\dots$ and $-\:6\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}} = -5.24419\dots$ . Therefore,

Solution : $16.13996 - 5.24419i$

Which rounds to about option b.
